The Ship Report: From the Ship Report archives: an in-depth look at Bulk Carriers, Part 2
The Ship Report: Monday, July 21, 2026This week I'm taking a little much needed time off, so we'll be hearing a bit from the Ship Report archives, a really interesting interview i did with Columbia River Bar Pilot Captain Robert Johnson, sometime in the early 2000s, all about the often-seen bulk carrier, the most common type of ship we see on the Columbia. There's a great deal to know, and we talk about a lot of it. Enjoy! Today is Part 2.The Ship Report will return with new content, ship schedules and marine weather, on Monday, July 27.
